Gobble up some traditiona­l Osakastyle street food at this kiosk. Spheerz serves takoyaki, a fried savoury snack typically filled with octopus and topped with a special sauce. See our interview with the founder (right) to find out more.

facebook.com/ Boothcafe1 Load up on global pastries including French crêpes, Dutch poffertjes (also known as mini pancakes), Mexican churros and Hungarian kurtos, an airy pastry cone that is roasted and gets rolled in sugar.

instagram.com/ crepes_and_poffs Think classic Americana-style burgers (using Angus beef), hot dogs and fries, but if you’re after something a bit more suited to the region try the pomegranat­e and rocca burger or the dynamite shrimp burger.

facebook.com/ BurgerKitc­henUAE Serving a range of sweet and savoury stuffed parathas, the menu caters to all types with dishes such as chips and cheese, labneh and zataar, omelette, chocolate and the Cheetos hot dog. Yes, you read that right – Cheetos!
